44 (NIV) He said to them, "This is what I told you while I was still with
you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the
Psalms." 45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them,
"This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and repentance and
forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 You are
witnesses of these things.
